Question about MODStream Artist - Title
Posted: 08 Aug 2026 21:58
Hi Bernd,
I was trying to find where I can retieve the Artist Title from the MODStream URL that is currently connected.
In MODStream I can see the Artist - Title being updated and I want to use that data for further processing.
My template file looks like this:
{
"playing": {
"id": "${cpltrackguidcurrent}",
"title": "${cpltracktitlecurrent}",
"artist": "${cpltrackartistcurrent}",
"base64": "${cpltrackalbumartcurrent}",
"modstreamurl": "${modstreamurl}",
"modstreamstatus": "${modstreamstatus}",
"modstreamisplaying": "${modstreamisplaying}"
}
}
I tried searching in the docs and found these:
${modstreamstatus} : the MODStream player status (None,Paused,ConnectedWaiting,Playing)
${modstreamstatusid} : the MODStream player status (0,1,2,3,4)
${modstreamisrunning} : is the MODStream player running (1/True, 0/False)
${modstreamisplaying} : is the MODStream player playing (1/True, 0/False)
${modstreamurl} : the currently used MODStream Url
I was then expecting maybe a modstreamartist and modstreamtitle exist.
Perhaps i'm missing something or have something misconfigured.
Kind regards,
Roy
